Ethics statement

Informed consent for the research and for publication was obtained prior to participation for the subject who was recruited under an Institutional Review Board approved protocol at Baylor College of Medicine.

Peroxisomal biochemical studies

Plasma samples and cultured fibroblast from a skin biopsy were used for peroxisomal biochemical analysis.

Plasma pipecolic acid was measured by electron capture negative ion mass fragmentography [1].

Very-long-chain fatty acid levels and total lipid fatty acid profile were measured as described [2], [3].

The plasmalogen assay was performed using C14 radioactivity incorporation and H3 counts to measure microsomal plasmalogen steps [4].

Fibroblast oxidation assays were performed using radioactive substrates to assay enzyme activity [5], [6].

Measurement of C26:0-lyso-PC was performed as described [7] and bile acid quantitation was performed by tandem mass spectrometry [8].

Catalase distribution in cultured cells was performed and quantified (% soluble catalase) [9], [10].

Whole-exome capture, sequencing and data analysis

The patient underwent WES through the Whole Genome Laboratory (https://www.bcm.edu/research/medical-genetics-labs/index.cfm?PMID=21319) using methods described [11].

Produced sequence reads were aligned to the GRCh37 (hg19) human genome reference assembly using the HGSC Mercury analysis pipeline (http://www.tinyurl.com/HGSC-Mercury/). Variants were determined and called using the Atlas2 [12] suite to produce a variant call file (VCF [13]).

High-quality variants were annotated using an in-house developed suite of annotation tools [14].
